Chapter 359 Big deal

Author: There are dragons in Nanshan

When Huaien heard that there was a boat going to Ningbo, why would he go back to Nanjing? Just follow him!

That night, he found someone and said he was going to go to the city to do business the next day, so he asked him to send him a letter and promised that he could receive a reward of two taels of silver after delivery. The man was honest and took the letter

Then he left.

In Nanjing, Xiao Jing was almost desperate. The arrival of this letter finally made a big stone in his heart.

"Thank you!"

"that……"

Seeing that the other party was about to speak, Xiao Jing asked, "Did you ask me to bring something?"

The man scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "The gentleman said that the letter was delivered and I would like to give two taels of silver to reward..."

Immediately afterwards, a ingot of silver appeared in front of him, and the size was more than two taels.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Xiao Jing smiled and replied: "We need to thank you!"

The man took the money and left with great gratitude. Xiao Jing immediately summoned the Xichang team and headed straight to Ningbo.

At this time, Wyen was sitting at the bow of the boat, looking at the broad river, dazed intent.

It was a lucky escape from death.

If the underground river was not found in the cave, or if those people had directly killed their lives...

But I don’t know where the killer Li San is now. When I find this person, I will definitely cut him into pieces to vent my hatred!

Thinking of this person, I think of the memory that was covered in dust for a long time when I was a child.

I thought that the past had disappeared with time, but Li San's sudden appearance forced him to face this reality.

Yes, I am the offender.

Since entering the palace, I have started from a little transparent person, little by little, and achieved the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor. What a great honor, but...

In any case, he will definitely be implicated in Li San's case.

Even if you can save your life, the position of the Sili Supervisor's seal will definitely change hands.

At this point, I had to seize Li San, kill the thief, and then take the initiative to resign from the emperor to guard the tomb for the late emperor, and spend the rest of my life.

Damn, the dog thief Li San actually recognizes the thief as his father!

I had known for a long time that Jiannu was not a good thing, otherwise why would the emperor have issued an order to destroy them?

The more he thought about it, his eyes turned red, and he almost stood up and cursed a few words, venting his hatred in his heart.

"Mr. Cao is still doing business with foreigners?"

"That's not, I tell you, those foreigners...their eyes are green!"

"Green? Isn't that goblin?"

"You really don't know, those foreign women look... like seductive little goblins..."

In the cabin, several boatmen were chatting and joking, but Huai'en listened but didn't take it to heart.

Since the opening of the Ming Dynasty, many merchants have also begun to start businesses with small foreign countries around them.

For example, North Korea, Ryukyu, Java, and other countries are rich in products. Spices, silver, sugar, ivory and other materials are very profitable when transported to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's silk, cotton, porcelain and other goods are also local.

Can sell for a good price.

Since it is profitable, those foreigners are not fools, and they cannot make money all the money. So foreign merchant ships also brought goods to the Ming Dynasty and landed from the southeast coast.

It is normal for these boatmen to meet foreigners.

After hearing this, Huai'en did not take it to heart. Now he just wanted to find the emperor after arriving in Ningbo and explain all this clearly.

I am innocent, the rebel Li San who killed thousands of swords...

"...I definitely don't know that Mr. Cao and foreigners have done big business!"

"Who are those rich people who are not doing big business with foreigners?"

"You don't understand this. The relationship between Mr. Cao and foreigners... is not an ordinary transaction!"

"What else can I do? Isn't it just to buy some silk porcelain and resell it? What's so unusual?"

"Look, don't you know?"

The boatman who spoke was named Wang Fusheng, who seemed to drink a little too much, and he started to speak with a big tongue.

"Even the things that Mr. Cao sells to foreigners, even the top ten ships of silk and porcelain, can't be exchanged for!"

"What the hell is it, mysterious..."

"Hey... I really can't tell you this!"

Wang Fusheng shook his head, looking mysterious on his face.

"You kid, just brag!"

"Who bragged?"

Wang Fusheng blushed and shouted: "I will tell you today, but I have something to say first, and no one can say it out, otherwise... it is the sin of beheading!"

The other boatmen didn't take it seriously at all. They thought he was bragging because he was drunk. The leader named Zhang Laoliu and joked: "Okay, let's not talk about it, you can tell me!"

"I've said it, you all sit firmly. Don't be shocked after listening!"

Zhang Laoliu said with great interest: "You boy, please say it quickly, let's shock us!"

"snort!"

Wang Fusheng first hummed disdainfully, then lowered his voice and said three words: "Iron Craft!"

Zhang Laoliu was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What did you say?"

"I said...the ironclad ship!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhang Laoliu suddenly burst into laughter, and the boat workers followed suit, as if they had heard something very funny.

Outside the cabin, Wynn's face suddenly became nervous.

He was still standing outside, but focused on the conversations of these people.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Hahahaha...I didn't laugh, haha..."

"Zhang Laoliu, don't you believe me?"

"I believe, I believe...haha!"

"Then you still laugh?"

"Me, I... Yesterday, my wife just gave birth to a big fat boy for me, seven and a half pounds, I'm happy... hahaha..."

"If you don't believe it, you'll get over it!"

Wang Fusheng was too lazy to argue, so he turned his face aside.

Zhang Laoliu smiled so hard that he leaned back and forth. After a while, he said, "You mean, Mr. Cao sold the ironclad ship from Ningbo Shipyard to foreigners?"

"Do you believe it or not!"

"Do you know that the emperor has arrived in Ningbo? According to what you said, the ironclad ships have been sold to foreigners. What are the emperor going to see?"

"You know what a fuck!"

Wang Fusheng looked contemptuous and said, "The iron-clad ships in the imperial court are so big. Even if Mr. Cao dares to sell them, can foreigners drive them away?"

"Didn't you say..."

"I mean, Mr. Cao sold the drawings of the ironclad ship to foreigners. They were drawings. Do you understand?"

"I said you are not finished yet? The drawings of the iron-clad ship are secrets of the court. I don't believe that no matter how rich Mr. Cao is, can he get the drawings?"

"What do you know? Master Cao's drawings..."

Wang Fusheng suddenly stopped and said, "Forget it, forget it, it's useless to tell you!"

"Just blow it!"

The boatmen burst into laughter again, and Wang Fusheng just smiled contemptuously, then closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Outside the cabin, Wyen's face became increasingly ugly.
